I think ppl is in a stae of change and between releases. I have not yet
seen it compile cleanly once with any version of GCC on Solaris. It
certainly never passes its own testsuites without a coredump or some
significant failure. Roberto Bagnara is aware of this and I am going to
work with him on this to get something valid in the POSIX/UNIX world and
hopefully a new release of ppl will come out that is solid for integration
into GCC. As for ClooG, I have no data at this time. This is merely an
observation from someone that tries to be very very careful with testing
and with testsuite results.

ps: thus far GCC 4.5.2 is beautiful on Solaris however on Debian Squeeze
it seems to be a nightmare. Testsuite has been running for three days on
Intel i7 with many many failures. I'll report data when I have it.
